“Agree with everything you posted. I know what I’m about to write is childish, but I am frustrated with God for letting Pope Francis get away with what he is doing to the Church.”

As frustrating as it is, God gave us all free will.

God made us imperfect. He did not want us to be machines who would always do as commanded. He wanted us to love him and to want to live good lives.

There is evil in the world. There are those who choose to do evil. Unfortunately, these evil people have infiltrated the hierarchy of the Catholic Church.

“Behold, I am sending you out like sheep in the midst of wolves; be wise as serpents, gentle as doves.”

Faithful Catholics today are like sheep in the midst of wolves.

The point would seem that Rome serves as shepherds in the custody of the ultimate Shepherd.

But what happens if this model fails beyond defense? What if the shepherds of Rome are all changed out for wolves?

The people who had been Roman Catholics are going to be forced to choose.
